Celtics snap long losing streak against Bucks

February 15, 2007 By WRN Contributor

Teams around the NBA were getting well against the Boston Celtics.  Boston had dropped 18 straight games, a streak they thought would never end. 

But along came the Milwaukee Bucks , and the Celtics problems are over, at least for one night.  Boston didn't just end their club record losing skid, they worked the Bucks over for a 20-point win, 117-97.

Paul Pierce scored 32 points and Gerald Green had 21 to lead the Celtics to their first victory since January 5.  It gives the Celtics a little relief heading into the all-star break and a five-game road trip out west to follow.

The Bucks blew a 15-point second quarter lead and Boston opened a double-digit lead of their own in the 3rd quarter. 

Mo Williams scored 31 and Charlie Bell 24 for the Bucks, who lost their fourth in a row.  Milwaukee is now 3-17 since Michael Redd left the lineup with a left knee injury.  He's expected to return after the all-star break.  The Bucks first game after the break is next Tuesday night at home against Detroit.
